I'm looking to get the new Lyrik Ultimate and think I've found what looks to be a good deal:

Can someone please let me know, is this the latest version? I assume it is but wanted to check as its a cheap german site
Cheers
Yep. Fact sheet on that page shows it as a 2021 model.
It's also a reputable site.
Check on StarBike as well. Great service and might be a bit cheaper - mine certainly were.
TF is a little more, but within that price the fork is stripped and checked.

£836 from TF but worth the extra. I sent some Revelations from my Clockwork to them because they were borked.
Turns out they were borked from the factory. TF dealt with SRAM and stripped/serviced the replacements before sending them back to me. Regular updates and photos along the way.
Well worth that strip-down for peace of mind IMHO.
I ordered some forks last week from TF, slightly more than buying from Germany but I’m happy to pay a little extra to get them looked at prior to being fitted, plus it helps the UK economy.
Thanks everyone
Good to know they're the latest. On a bit of a tight budget so think I will go for Bike24/Star Bike
@eyestwice what was actually wrong with the Revelations on the Orange? The ones from the wife's clockwork are pretty shocking.
They’re definitely the 2021 version. I bought a pair from bike24 earlier this month. Came to £751 after exchange rate conversion, which was way cheaper than anyone else and delivery was pretty quick.
Latest Lyrik is the C3. The data sheet on your link mentions they are gloss black but the C3 is matte black (or at least mine are).
If you’re bothered either way.
Definitely not bothered about gloss versus Matte black, but I would be bothered about any enhancements in a new version
@onzadog Sent them to TF for a service as they were shocking. Turns out that they were full of metal shavings. They hadn't done many miles so the consensus was that they were like that from the factory.
I spoke to Orange who confirmed that they just fit them, they do nothing to the internals.
That's on a 2018 bike. Haven't checked the exact model year but can have a look tomorrow.
Ours are 2018 but I've had them apart and upgraded the air shaft (twice) so different issue on ours - just MoCo damper being a MoCo damper I suspect.
OP, my Lyriks from StarBike are gloss black with the latest C3 air spring and came in a retail box.
The Maxima fluid in the description tells me it's the latest.
With Lyriks frequently popping out at these prices I wonder why people really bother to pay the Fox admission fee.
Especially as the only useful thing I learned from my recent Mezzer experience was that the Lyrik was the stiffer chassis compared to the 36.
Having recently switched from a 36 to a Lyrik I can confirm that. Cheaper spares, easier to disassemble, noticeable stiffer chassis, way more supple...
...and 2/3 the price!
black but the C3 is matte black (or at least mine are).
Standard C3 is gloss black. OE ones could be matt, but buying from a shop you should expect gloss ones.

Because kashima...
Someone mentioned to me that they can't believe all expensive bikes don't come with it...
I'm quite happy with my Pikes
